This Tuesday morning on The Morning Cruise on Bush Radio 89.5 FM, we had the privilege of hosting Valerie van Gensen, a mother from Kuilsriver, and her daughter Logann. The young student was recently selected for an academic trip to Dubai,a rare and enriching opportunity that promises incredible discoveries, but also presents a financial challenge.
A Wave of Emotions
When Valerie learned that her daughter had been chosen for this study trip, she admitted feeling a mix of pride and hope, but also some apprehension about the costs involved. Logann, on the other hand, was overjoyed yet a little nervous at the thought of embarking on this adventure, discovering a new country and new cultures.
Why This Trip Matters
For Valerie, this journey is much more than just a tourist visit. It’s an exceptional opportunity for Logann to broaden her horizons, learn in new ways, strengthen her skills, and proudly represent her school and community. A real stepping stone for her future.
Logann shared her excitement about exploring Dubai, boarding a plane for the first time, and visiting the iconic landmarks awaiting her. This experience promises to be a true personal and academic enrichment.
A Challenge to Overcome: Funding
The total cost of the trip is a significant hurdle for the family, covering transportation, accommodation, and on-site activities. Valerie balances her responsibilities as a mother and her own studies, making the situation even more complex.
But the family isn’t giving up. Logann is actively involved in fundraising, with personal initiatives and support from her community, including her school and friends. Local solidarity is a key factor in helping them turn this dream into reality.
A Call to the Community
Valerie and Logann are making a heartfelt appeal to anyone who wishes to support them. Whether through a donation, a fundraising idea, or simply by sharing their story, every gesture counts. You can easily reach Valerie via Bush Radio’s WhatsApp line for all necessary details, including banking information.
A Future Full of Hope
The interview also touched on Logann’s dreams and ambitions—she hopes to travel even more in the future and build a career that allows her to keep growing and learning.
Before wrapping up, Logann shared a touching message for her mother, expressing her admiration and gratitude for all her support.
Conclusion
Valerie and Logann’s story is a beautiful example of determination, hope, and the power of dreams. This trip to Dubai isn’t just a destination—it’s an open door to a promising future. By supporting this family, the entire community stands to gain.
